I think you are undervaluing Peavy in a seller's market with not much out there. Jake has an additional year after this and will almost assuredly garner a qualifying offer which equates to an additional draft pick immediately after the first round. The notion that Jake is going to only net you prospects in the 150's is silly. Don't believe the Bland talk. Arizona, Boston, St Louis, Oakland, and Atlanta all have interest here. Value will be had.

Hopefully but Buster Olney said today that a lot of teams think that Peavy is too expensive. I don't know if they mean the White Sox asking price for him or the contract.

I heard SCORE announcer David Schuester last night say he thinks Hahn is going to make numerous trades by next week. As much as I don't like Schuester, I hope he's right for once. I'm actually worried that Hahn won't make any major trades at all. Maybe these other teams don't want most of our players who Hahn wants to move. I hope Hahn does something major before the deadline otherwise it's going to be a long last 2 months of the season. Does anybody really want to see these same White Sox players for 2 more months? I'm actually beginning to think that's a real possibilty.

The Sox probably have some of the best pieces to move on the market in a number of positions (RF, SS, SP, relievers), are totally out of contention and can't come back with this same lineup next year. I'd be shocked if Rios, Peavy, Ramirez, Crane, maybe DeAza - or some combination of these - aren't gone by next week.

I would not shed a tear at all if these guys are gone by next week....as long as we got some decent talent back in return.

I understand most of them. DeAza to me is a piece you keep. He is still fairly young hits decently and is low cost. I know we may get something for him but nothing that great that will warrant him being traded unless he is part of a multiplayer deal.

Only if you get a lineup where he can hit 7th or 8th. He's also a defensive liability.
